Heart Healthy Recipes - Chicken with Creamy Dijon Sauce

Chicken with Creamy Dijon SauceChicken with Creamy Dijon Sauce
Total preparation time: 27 minutes
Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 22 minutes

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ cup finely chopped onions
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup Original soymilk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon salt
1½ teaspoons lemon juice
¾ teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill weed OR 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
Pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat; add onion and chicken. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until chicken is lightly browned on both sides; add soymilk. Cover and cook over medium-low heat about 12 minutes or until juice of chicken is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut. (Soymilk may develop a skin that can be stirred smooth). Remove chicken with slotted spoon and set aside, keeping warm.

2. Stir mustard and salt into soymilk; continue cooking until bubbly. Stir together lemon juice and cornstarch; stir into soymilk. Stir in sour cream and dill weed. Heat just until smooth, stirring constantly; season with pepper.

3. Add chicken; heat just until hot.
